How to join a Zoom meeting | Tom's Guide
A Zoom account is not required to join a meeting. To join a meeting in Zoom, a host must first create a meeting and share a URL link, ID, and password to the meeting with you.
How early you can enter a meeting depends on the host. The host has the option to enable participants to join as early as they like, even before the host joins. More often than not though, participants will have to wait for the host to allow them into the meeting. In this instance, a host has sent you a URL link in an email invitation. The email will look similar to the one pictured. A few minutes before the meeting is scheduled to begin, click on the URL link in blue indicated by the red arrow in the picture.
See blue arrow You may be prompted to use these to sign into the meeting. After clicking on the URL link, your computer will prompt you to allow Zoom to launch on your browser.
The meeting host has the option of when to allow participants to enter. If the host has not yet allowed participants into the meeting, you will see a window informing you of this and asking you to test your audio while you wait.
If you do not have a Zoom account, you will be asked to give a name that will appear in the participants list. If you already have a Zoom account, you will be able to log in at this time.
It is a very good idea to go ahead and test your audio while you wait. You should hear a dinging or bells. If not, try raising the volume of your computer and pressing the button again. When you are done speaking press the button again. If either the speakers or the mic are not working, you may need to change the source of the sound.
You can do this by changing the selection on the drop-down menus to the right of each. If you have not tried using a headset with a mic yet, try connecting one to your computer and running the test again. Some computers have built-in microphones, but many do not. Once the host has allowed participants into the meeting you will see a window similar to the next image. Red Arrow: You may be automatically muted upon entering a meeting. If your mic has a red line through it, then you are muted.
If not, click on the mic and it will mute. Likewise, click on the mic again to unmute. It is good Zoom etiquette to keep yourself muted unless you are the one speaking.
Blue Arrow: Like the mic, your video may be automatically turned off. Go to the website zoom. If this is your first use of your UTS Zoom account, or if the terms have changed, you will asked confirm your information is shared with utsmeet. Figure 1 - You are about to access the service: utsmeet. Figure 2 Confirm accepting information shared with this service. You will next be prompted to set-up download and install the Zoom Meeting Client on computer or the Zoom App on mobiles.
Figure 4 - Enter your company domain as utsmeet. Figure 6 - Enter utsmeet as company domain on Apple iOS. Figure 6a - Enter utsmeet on Android. You can also access your Zoom links via your Canvas Subject site if your Subject coordinator has switched on the Zoom in Canvas feature.
You can find more information on how to do this in the To Log into Zoom via Canvas section on the Zoom page.
